When creating a new goal, you’re able to title it and enter the number of times you want to work on it or the amount of time you want to spend on it each and everyday. After completing a goal for the day, simply enter your progress and attach notes if necessary. If you start to get behind on a goal, don’t fret, you can make up for it by doing more the next day. The idea is to keep those vertical blue and red bars from appearing on the side of your goal. The app also includes the ability to edit goals, set reminders, view statistical progress, and share your daily logs.
